    rbt install is used to install a dependency needed by RBTools to interact with a repository.

    As of this release, the only dependency supported is tfs, needed for Microsoft Team Foundation Server repositories. This can be installed. See Team Foundation Server Configuration for more information.

    Usage¶

    $ rbt install [options] <package>
    

    Options¶

    -d, --debug¶

    This information can be valuable when debugging problems running the command.

    The default can be set in DEBUG in .reviewboardrc.

    --json¶

    Output results as JSON data instead of text.

    The default can be set in JSON_OUTPUT in .reviewboardrc.
